12th Annual Liebowitz Day 2: Electric Boogaloo

A study conducted by one Middlebury College senior reveals that students are obsessed with President Ron Liebowitz.

Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you . . .

Exhibit A: Today is Liebowitz Day. Events include a pancake brunch, jam and preserves competition, diamond counting, loafer races, “Feb” vs. “Classic Original” Tug-O-War, and much, much more.

Exhibit B: There is a website. Registering a domain costs, like, $8.

Exhibit C: The website includes a video featuring endorsements by Wesley Snipes, Barack Obama (OMG, I love Barack!!!1!), and other notable figures, music, and, yes, t-shirts a la Che.

Exhibit D: 3.5 trees were harmed in the making of posters. Count Paper is watching you! See also: Main Library entrance.

Exhibit E: Someone went to great lengths to construct an accurate biography:

Ron is Middlebury’s third faculty member to be named president, following John McCardell and 19th century alumnus and egyptologist Ezra Brainerd. Still an active professor, Liebowitz is currently teaching the course Geography course Applications of GIS in Solving Legends of the Hidden Temple. He currently resides in Battell 2 North.

Exhibit F:

In conclusion, Midd Blog will feign ignorance and cite the famous words of my illustrious predecessor, “Joke, poke, genuine, or disgruntled students?”
